[quote] Too many players use open lobbies for private games. I was kicked from 90% of the open [b]coop lobbies[/b] I joined - by people I don't know and have never seen before.[/quote]

Random co-op lobbies are often started by people who do not have deep links with the "core" Zero-K community, are here to play with their friends, and don't really want to play with randoms on the Internet.

We could try to find some gentle way to encourage these people to put a password on their lobbies, but I do not think it is appropriate to *force* them to play with randoms on the Internet.

As for kicks from the main active hosts for the "core" Zero-K community, report any inappropriate kicks. The moderators will take action to punish and/or prevent such kicks.

This is a nice sounding theory. Unfortunately, available data strongly suggests that the likely outcome of this is people getting ostracised and leaving the community entirely.

There are not, by and large, large monolithic "groups" that dislike each other in the Zero-K community. There are individuals who get bullied (or just play poorly), cliques that like to bully them (or get triggered by poor play), and a bunch of bystanders that will typically just stick around and play the larger game rather than split off to follow somebody who got kicked out. (The departure of Firepluk, snoke, et al. has markedly improved this situation but certainly has not and will not eliminate it.)
